For the sake of righteousness …
He made his most beloved disciple become someone else's Dao slave so that he could become the guiding light of the Human Alliance Army at a critical moment. It was heartless.
But for his disciple …
Mu Zun, who had become one of the higher-ups of the Human Alliance Army, did not care about his reputation and cried in front of everyone. He was in so much pain that he wished he was dead.
Therefore …
No one knew whether Elder Mu Zun was heartless or infatuated with his disciple.
The only thing they knew was that
Supreme Wood was frightening enough to make one's hair stand on end.
"Mu … Mu Zun … Elder Mu Zun …"
"Please, please accept my condolences …"
"Perhaps his disciple Feng Po will return safely. The reunion of master and disciple will be nothing less than … a wonderful story …"
"Yes, yes. Moreover, if this matter succeeds, you and your disciple will be considered the greatest contributors. If Lord Sword Emperor takes action, perhaps …"
…
It was a rare sight for the higher-ups to stutter, one after another in the main hall.
They did not realize that Mu Zun, who could be easily spoken of, had now become Elder Mu Zun.
While this form of respect did not mean much, at the very least, these big shots who could summon Supreme Wood at his beck and call had begun to respect him.
This change was seen by the other people in the meeting, and they could not help but sigh.
"This Mu Zun is really ruthless!"
"If not for this, he would not have been able to reach his current level …"
"Tsk, tsk. At first, we mocked him for sending a cannon fodder. Who would have thought …"
"Who would have thought that this cannon fodder would be more useful than the other 29 people combined!"
"Damn it, I miscalculated!"
"This Mu Zun …"
"This Mu Zun? Ha, I'm afraid we'll have to address him as Lord if we meet in the future! "
"It's fine if the higher-ups of the four Heavenly Sects think highly of him. Think about it. If his methods are appreciated by the Sword Emperor, then …"
"Hiss!"
…
Elder Mu Zun's performance was very mediocre.
From mediocre to extraordinary, he had only done three things.
Firstly, he had unintentionally surrounded the army of 200,000 Demons, which attracted the attention of the higher-ups.
Secondly, he had thrown out the Heart Bewitching Array at the right time, directly changing the outcome of the battle between humans and demons.
In the end, when the Demons easily turned the tables around, he exposed a little trick that he had previously buried. This exposure was tantamount to adding the finishing touch, nailing Elder Mu Zun to the highest level of the Human Allied Forces, making him a target for people to worship and revere.
Even if the last method seemed cruel and merciless …
But looking at Mu Zun, who was still wailing in grief, no one dared to say such a thing.
Furthermore …
Elder Supreme Wood's grief was not enough for him to be satisfied with wailing.
After wailing sorrowfully for a while, he actually staggered to the front of Tan Daoyou's Master, and knelt down with a loud bang!
"Fellow Daoist Mu, you, you …"
"Fellow Daoist Tan, Old Man is willing to transfer all the credit to fellow Daoist. I only ask for one thing from fellow Daoist!"
Tan Daoyou was obviously frightened.
Because even though the situation had not yet been settled …
But a great victory for the Human Allied Forces was just around the corner!
The Sword Emperor's will would be successfully carried out!
This contribution was unimaginably great!
Even after the higher-ups divided up the majority of the credit, the credit that fell on Mu Zun's head was enough to make any Quasi-emperor go crazy!
"Fellow, Fellow Daoist Mu, you, you're too, too polite …" The frightened Tan Daoyou stammered, "I, I don't know what fellow, what do you want …"
"I only ask that fellow Daoist bestow the Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique to the Old Man!"
Elder Mu's face was full of a bitter smile, and he shouted resolutely, as if he had sworn not to give up!
And as soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked!
"Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique?"
"This, although this is not the Tianyi Styx technique, but Tan Daoyou's unique secret technique, but …"
"Techniques cannot be easily passed on. Speaking of which, why did Elder Mu Zun ask for the Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique? And even at such a price? "
"Oh, Old Man understands. Elder Mu Zun must be too grieved and blaming himself, so he wants to personally perform the Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique …"
"Yes, in this way, even if the Taiyi contract cannot be completely removed, at least he can still see his beloved disciple …"
"Sigh, such a price in exchange for a glance at his disciple … The Old Man is finally convinced!"
"It seems that this Mu Zun is really not that vicious and heartless?"
…
Tan Daoyou also did not expect that Mu Zun would make such a shameless request.
Although the Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique did not involve killing, it was inherited from the ancient Spirit Void Dojo, and was one of the three great ancient source-seeking techniques!
And what was source-seeking and devouring?
？
It was to search for the essence of the Heavenly Way's Source!
Such a secret technique was incomparably mysterious. Even in ancient times, most people who possessed this secret technique could only use this technique to search for various kinds of high-quality Divine Sources. To use this technique to search for the essence of the Heavenly Way's Source seemed to be even more difficult than becoming an Emperor!
Even Tan Daoyou, who had painstakingly comprehended for many years, had only comprehended a set of Taiyi contract from the Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique, as well as some other small techniques.
Even so, he regarded this technique as the foundation of his life. At this moment, when he heard someone ask for it in public, his expression immediately turned ugly.
"Even if your contribution this time is unparalleled, you want to use this to exchange for the Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique? That's too … "
Unexpectedly, before he finished muttering in his heart, the higher-ups in the hall spoke.
"Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique? If I remember correctly, although this technique is noble as one of the three great ancient source-seeking techniques, it has long been incomplete. Am I right, Tan Tang? "
Tan Daoyou was shocked and hurriedly replied, "Reporting to Your Excellency, all of my Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique is incomplete, so I absolutely dare not agree to Elder Mu Zun's …"
"Since it's incomplete, then there's nothing to worry about." The higher-ups casually waved their hands and said slowly, "Since Elder Mu Zun is willing to exchange for it with such a great contribution, Tan Tang, please fulfill Elder Mu Zun's painstaking efforts."
"This …"
"Hmm?" Another higher-up frowned slightly. "Tan Tang, could it be that you're still unwilling? To you, this is a great thing! "
"Indeed, even if the Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique is mysterious and unfathomable, it is said that once one comprehends it, it is equivalent to building thirty percent of the Emperor's Road …"
"But Tan Tang, not to mention the fact that it's incomplete, with your aptitude, how can you talk about comprehending it? Even I dare not have such an extravagant hope! "
"Ahem, since you and Mu Zun are colleagues, you should be impartial and righteous. Moreover, you can ask everyone here, if you want them to choose between the incomplete Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique and Elder Mu Zun's great contribution this time, which one will they choose!"
"Tan Tang, that's all I have to say. Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"
…
Soft and hard, persuasive words, and threatening words, all of them resounded in Tan Tang's ears like thunder.
Coupled with the repeated persuasion of a group of colleagues, Tan Tang finally broke down and let out a long, bitter sigh.
"Forget it. If I insist on this, I'll make the Old Man look like a human inside and out!" Tan Tang looked at Mu Zun and said with a bitter smile, "Fellow Daoist Mu Zun, it's not that the Old Man is unwilling, but if you do this, it's equivalent to suffering a great loss!"
Hearing this, Mu Zun bowed deeply to Tan Tang, and then smiled miserably.
"Even my disciple is gone, what's the point of the contribution? The Old Man still has to thank you for your help …"
"Alas, it's this old man who has benefited greatly. In that case … Fellow Daoist Mu Zun, this is the incomplete Taiyi Source-Seeking Technique of the Ancient Spirit Void Dojo. Please accept it!"
